Alberta Party response to Question 6

Question: Would you support increasing FCSS funding? How and under what timeframe?

FCSS is a program funded by the Province and municipalities to provide social service programs that are tailored to the local community. Although the Province is supposed to provide 80% of the funding, the Province’s actual funding has remained frozen since 2009 and has fallen well below the 80% commitment. The Alberta Party would adhere to the 80% commitment and index increases in FCSS funding to the rate of inflation.
